Is your child fascinated by robots and technology? Do they love the idea of building something cool and controlling it with just a wave of their hand? If so, the Arduino Accelerators: Gesture-Controlled Robot Camp at
Futurebytes in Santa Clara, Cupertino, and San Jose is the perfect way for them to dive into the world of robotics and coding this summer!
At Futurebytes, we believe in learning by doing. That’s why this camp is all about building and programming robots that respond to gestures—giving kids a hands-on introduction to the exciting world of robotics and electronics. If your child is curious about how things work and loves getting their hands dirty with tech, this camp is sure to spark their imagination.
The Arduino Accelerators: Gesture-Controlled Robot Camp is packed with fun, interactive learning. Here’s a peek at what your child will experience:
Before they start building their robots, kids will get an introduction to Arduino, an open-source platform used for creating interactive electronics. They’ll learn the basics of Arduino, like how it controls motors, sensors, and other components. This is the foundation for the robots they will build, and it helps them understand how technology can come to life.
This is where the fun really begins! Using motion sensors, kids will design their own gesture-controlled robot. With just a simple wave of their hand, they can make their robot move forward, backward, or even spin. It’s a perfect way to introduce kids to the basics of robotics, like input-output systems, and show them how gestures can control actions in the real world.
At the camp, kids will dive into the world of motion sensors and learn how robots can “sense” their environment. They’ll work with accelerometer sensors, which allow the robot to detect hand movements and follow commands. By experimenting with these sensors, kids will discover how robots can interact with the world in real-time.
Coding is a big part of this camp! Kids will learn how to program their robots to respond to different gestures. For example, they’ll write simple code that makes the robot perform specific actions when it detects a
particular movement. This teaches them valuable programming concepts, like loops and conditions, all while having fun.
By the end of the camp, each child will have a fully functioning, gesturecontrolled robot that they can proudly show off. It’s a chance for them to see how all their hard work has come together, and they’ll leave with new
skills in robotics and coding.
At Futurebytes, we make learning both fun and educational. Our Arduino Accelerators: Gesture-Controlled Robot Camp is designed to give kids a hands-on experience in building and programming robots while developing essential problem-solving and critical thinking skills. Our instructors are experts in robotics and coding, providing personalized guidance to help every child succeed.
Futurebytes also offers a STEM.org accreditation, meaning we meet high standards for quality educational programs that prepare kids for the future.
Learning robotics is an exciting way for kids to develop skills that will be valuable for their future:
- Problem-Solving: Building and programming robots requires kids to think critically and come up with creative solutions.
- Teamwork: While each child works on their own robot, they’ll collaborate, share ideas, and learn from one another.
- Confidence in Technology: Kids will gain confidence as they see their robots come to life and realize they can create technology themselves.
- Future-Ready Skills: With technology continuing to grow, learning robotics helps kids prepare for future careers in STEM fields.
